McDonald’s largest distributor, the Martin-Brower Company LLC, is tasked with delivering supplies to nearly all of the company’s 15,000 locations in North America. Each distribution center handles 250 to 700 restaurants, providing warehousing, transportation, and logistics services to each.
Most restaurants get two or three deliveries per week, with one delivery truck able to completely stock the establishment. Delivery times are coordinated to not interrupt breakfast or lunch service because customers may not pull in if they see the truck in the parking lot.
